The Burlingame City Council took up a resolution Monday, Aug. 17, to adopt its Safety Action Plan, the city's formal commitment to eliminating traffic fatalities and serious injuries on local roadways, according to the meeting agenda.

The resolution was listed as a staff report action item at the 7 p.m. meeting at City Hall. Full minutes are pending.

The plan follows the Vision Zero framework used by cities nationwide. According to the city's project page, it provides Burlingame "a clear path forward to improve roadway safety" and represents "an important milestone in the City's commitment to safer streets for everyone."

The adoption caps months of review that included a special meeting of the Traffic, Safety and Parking Commission on July 2, where Chair John Martos, Vice-Chair Jennifer Johnson, Lynn Israelit, Robert Brown and Irenee French examined the draft plan before advancing it to the full council.

Which streets get priority treatment and what specific infrastructure changes are planned have not been detailed publicly beyond the plan document itself.

The same meeting's consent calendar included a $300,000, two-year contract with Precision Concrete Cutting for sidewalk assessment and displacement repair across the city. The agenda also listed a resolution authorizing an application for regional One Bay Area Grant funding for the Chapin Avenue Streetscape Project, described as aligning with the city's pedestrian and safety goals.

The council also opened nominations to fill two vacancies on the Traffic, Safety and Parking Commission, the body that vetted the Vision Zero plan.

Mayor Michael Brownrigg, Vice Mayor Andrea Pappajohn and council members Donna Colson, Desiree Thayer and Peter Stevenson were listed on the agenda for the meeting.

The next regular City Council meeting is Tuesday, Sept. 8, at 7 p.m.
